Lets's calculate LCM of 865,739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 639235
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/639235
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5010/865,2847/739 is 3/639235
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 865,739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(865,739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(865,739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(865,739) = ( 865 × 739 ) / 1
LCM(865,739) = 639235 / 1
LCM(865,739) = 639235
